Oxx and Berry strike with Troas Troas is set for a step up in trip and class after claiming the 1m2f maiden at Leopardstown for John Oxx. Fran Berry produced his mount to lead at the furlong pole and he was always doing just enough to hold Carraiglawn by a head. "He ran well in a maiden here first time. He's a very lazy horse at home and we had to run him to see if there was anything there," said Oxx. "That race didn't really suit him as they went slow and what won it for him today was the fast pace. "He loves fast ground and we'll step him up in trip now and see what is available. He's a nice horse but shows nothing at home. "The racecourse will tell us about him and he needs a bit more experience."
